I want to see how close I'm getting to the note being too big. Where do I see that?

In the Windows client, View / Status Bar will show a bar with word count and note size. Don't know whether that exists for the Mac.

You can also see it in the snippet or list if you use those views

I am sure a lot of Mac users will find that info rather helpful. Thanks for sharing! :)

On a Mac I can't see it in snippet view - it is there in list view.

I always use fullscreen in Lion. So -- correct me if I'm wrong -- to see the size of a note, I need to leave fullscreen and change views to list view?

It feels like it should be in the "Info" popup for each note.

Yup


I'm not crazy, am I? Doesn't that seem like an oversight?

The main reason is to make sure the note that you're currently editing isn't going over the note limit, correct? Would you need to see the metadata of multiple notes at a time or of a note you're not actively editing?

Just clarifying what the needs are. Thanks!

You might be crazy, I'm not qualified to judge....

Ahead of the deployment of the 'Lion' ready version of Evernote there was a lot of discussion around the UI and which view or views were going to be supported. For better or worse, Evernote decided for the time being that only one view would be supported. This makes it pretty much useless for me, but then again I haven't found any app that works better in full screen than it does normally so they are not alone.

That is correct. I would not need to see the metadata of multiple notes at the same time.

Note size is available in the new Mac Beta 1. http://discussion.ev...mac-307-beta-1/

You can access this while you're in a note, including in FullScreen Mode.

Hope that was quick enough!
